Fracture toughness of rock is a constant that can indicate the initiation and propagation of cracks due to blasting, excavation, etc. Scaled model tests have been applied to the behavior of tunnels and the stability of limestone mines. Through the scaled model, damaged zone evaluation due to blasting is also carried out, and the scale factor is not applied to the failure-related factors. In this study, DCT (diametral compression test) and finite element method ATENA2D numerical analysis results were compared to determine whether the scale factor could be applied to the fracture toughness of rock. The theoretical values of the scale factor applied to the fracture toughness of the rock and the DCT test results and the numerical results are 0.21~0.46, 0.40, and 0.99MPa ${\sqrt{m}}$ respectively, so these three values should be considered when determining scale factor. It is necessary to derive a suitable scale factor in consideration of the length, time, and mass to which the scale factor is applied, as well as the values of the scale factor of major design factors such as uniaxial compressive strength and density.

본 논문에서는 연속되는 동영상 시퀸스의 9개의 프레임에서 이웃하는 프레임간의 차분 프레임으로 이루어진 8개의 차분 데이터를 3D-DCT 처리 후 특성에 맞는 프레임 차분 체적 양자화기(FDVQ)를 설계하고, 이것으로 처리된 영상데이터를 부호화하여 복원영상 데이터의 압축 효과를 분석하였다. 여러가지 동영상 시퀀스를 시험 대상으로 사용한 결과, 제안한 FDVQ를 적용한 3D-DCT 방법은 유사한 해상도에서 차분 영상 데이터에 대한 압축률은 2D-DCT 방법에 비하여 평균 20.3% 향상된 압축 효율을 얻었다. 체적 양자화(VQ:Volume Quantizer)를 이용한 3D-DCT 방법과 비교했을 때는 유사한 압축률을 보였다. 특히, 움직임 성분이 많은 영상에 대해서는 제안한 FDVQ를 이용한 방법이 압축률을 높일수록 2D-DCT방법과 VQ를 이용한 방법보다 압축률 0.05bpp이하에서 약 1.0dB 개선된 결과를 나타내었다.

In this paper. we propose the method of Scene Change Detection for video sequence using the DC components and the moving vectors in the Macro Blocks in the DCT blocks. The proposed method detects the Scene Change which would not be related with the specific sequences in the compressed MPEG domain. To do this. we define new metrics for Scene Change Detection using the features of picture component and detect the exact Scene Change point of B-pictures using the characteristics of B-picture's sharp response for the moving vectors. In brief, we will detect the cut point using I-picture and the gradual scene changes such as dissolve, fade, wipe, etc. As a results, our proposed method shows good test results for the various MPEG sequences.

This paper describes a VLSI implementation of real-time two dimensional DCT processor for the subprimary rate video codec system. The proposed architecture exploits the parallelism and concurrency of the distributes architecture for vector inner product operation of DCT and meets the CCITT performance requirements of video codec for full CSIF 30 frames/sec. It is also shown that this architecture satisfies all the CCITT IDCT accuracy specification by simulating the suggested architecture in bit level. The efficient VLSI disign methodology to design suggested architecture is considered and the module generator oriented design environments are constructed based on SUN 3/150C workstation. Using the constructed design environments. the suggensted architecture have been designed by double metal 2micron CMOS technology. The chip area fo designed 8x8 2-D DA-DCT (Distributed Arithmetic DCT) processor is about 3.9mmx4.8mm.

In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm for region analysis of business card images acquired in a PDA by using DCT and information pixel density. The proposed method consists of three parts: region segmentation, information region classification, and text region classification. In the region segmentation, an input business card image is partitioned into 8 f8 blocks and the blocks are classified into information and background blocks using the normalized DCT energy in their low frequency bands. The input image is then segmented into information and background regions by region labeling on the classified blocks. In the information region classification, each information region is classified into picture region or text region by using a ratio of the DCT energy of horizontal and vertical edge components to that in low frequency band and a density of information pixels, that are black pixels in its binarized region. In the text region classification, each text region is classified into large character region or small character region by using the density of information pixels and an averaged horizontal and vertical run-lengths of information pixels. Experimental results show that the proposed method yields good performance of region segmentation, information region classification, and text region classification for test images of several types of business cards acquired by a PDA under various surrounding conditions. In addition, the error rates of the proposed region segmentation are about 2.2-10.1% lower than those of the conventional region segmentation methods. It is also shown that the error rates of the proposed information region classification is about 1.7% lower than that of the conventional information region classification method.

본 논문에서는 영상 시퀀스의 이전 프레임과 현재 프레임 사이의 차분 데이터로 이루어진 차분 프레임에 대하여 제안한 FDVQ(프레임 차분 체적양자화기)를 적용했을 때, 복원된 영상의 원 영상에 대한 해상도(PSNR)를 분석하였다. 시험 동영상(moving image)으로 실험한 결과, 저주파 성분을 많이 포함하는 차분 영상 데이터에 대하여 높은 압축률에서 제안된 FDVQ 방법으로 얻은 복원 해상도는 2D-DCT와 VQ를 이용한 방법보다 개선된 결과를 나타내었다. PSNR 결과에 대한 영상 특성의 분석 결과에서 FDVQ를 이용한 방법은 VQ 방법보다 압축률은 비슷하였으나 해상도는 평균 0.39㏈ 정도 향상되었다. 또한, 평균압축률 약 0.05bpp에서 2D-DCT 방법에 비해 고주파 성분을 많이 포함하는 경우는 0.8㏈ 이상 향상되었으며, 저주파 성분을 많이 포함하는 경우는 평균 0.4㏈ 정도 향상된 복원영상(reconstructed image)을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper presents a polyphase down sampling based multiple description coding applied to H.264 video coding standard. For a given macroblock, a residual macroblock is calculated by motion estimation, and before applying DCT, quantization and entrophy coding of the H.264 coding process, the polyphase down sampling is applied to the residual macroblock to code in four separate descriptions. Experiments were performed for all the 9 test sequences of JVT SVC standardization in various packet loss patterns. Experimental results show that the proposed one gives 0.5 to 5 dB enhancement over an error-concealment based on the slice group map technolgoy.

A progressive image transmission (PIT) scheme based on the classified transform vector quantization (CVQ) technique using the lapped orthogonal transform (LOT) and human visual system (HVS) weighting is proposed in this paper. Conventional block transform coding of images using DCT produces in general undesirable block-artifacts at low bit rates. In this paper, image blocks are transformed using the LOT and classified into four classes based on their structural properties and further divided adaptively into subvectors depending on the LOT coefficient statistics with HVS weighting to improve the reconstructed image quality by adaptive bit allocation. The subvectors are vector quantized and transmitted progressively. Coding tests using computer simulations show that the LOT/CVQ based PIT of images is a effective coding scheme. The results are also compared with those obtained using PIT/DCTVQ. The LOT/CVQ based PIT reduces the block-artifacts significantly.

Defects positioning of underground gas pipelines using MFL(magnetic flux leakage) inspection which is one of non-destructive evaluation techniques is proposed in this paper. MFL signals acquired from MFL PIG(pipeline inspection gauge) have nonlinearity and distortion caused by various external disturbances. SQI(self quotient image), a compensation technique for nonlinearity and distortion of MFL signal, is used to correct positioning of pipeline defects. Through the experiments using artificial defects carved in the KOGAS pipeline simulation facility, it is found that the performance of proposed defect detection is greatly improved compared to that of the conventional DCT(discrete cosine transform) coefficients based detection.
